I'm 26 and have been experiencing chest pain for about a month and a half now. I checked my ECG, and it came back normal, but I'm still worried. Sometimes it feels like a pressing sensation, and other times it feels like something's moving inside my chest, shifting from the middle to the top, or from the left side to the middle. What could this be?

View allI've been having episodes of shortness of breath without any pain, and I'm really worried after my visit to the emergency at Medanta. They did a couple of troponin T tests; one came out negative, but the other was positiveshould I be worried about that? Then they did a coronary angiography, which came back normal, thank goodness, but they also did a CT coronary angiography, and the results are attached. Could you help me understand what's going on in the report and what my next steps should be in terms of treatment?
I see that you have undergone various tests for shortness of breath and have received conflicting results on troponin T tests. The normal coronary angiography results are reassuring. As for the CT coronary angiography report, without seeing the specific details, I cannot provide a detailed explanation. However, based on the information provided, it seems like further evaluation and monitoring may be needed to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms. In terms of treatment, it would be best to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive assessment and to discuss the next steps.

I'm really worried about my father. He's been diagnosed with severe coronary ectasia and previously, doctors mentioned that a bypass surgery isn't an option for him. I'm wondering if treatments like Ace Inhibitors or the drug Entresto could be effective in his situation? Lately, he's been having more frequent chest pains and feeling a lot of unease. Could you provide some guidance on this?
For the treatment of coronary ectasia, Ace Inhibitors such as Lisinopril can be beneficial in managing symptoms and improving heart function. The recommended dosage of Lisinopril is usually starting at 2.5-5 mg once a day, which can be adjusted by the doctor based on individual response. Entresto, which is a combination of Sacubitril and Valsartan, can also be considered for the treatment of heart failure in patients with reduced ejection fraction. The usual starting dose of Entresto is 4951 mg twice daily, which can be increased to the target maintenance dose of 97103 mg twice daily as tolerated. However, it is important to consult with your father's healthcare provider before starting any new medication or making changes to his current treatment plan. Regular monitoring and follow-up with a healthcare professional are essential in managing coronary ectasia and associated symptoms.
